Africa’s WW2 in the making? What does Rwanda say?
*¡Deja de borrar mis publicaciones!* No hay nada en lo siguiente que viole las reglas de tu “comunidad”:
Todas las “guerras mundiales” del mundo comenzaron en un solo lugar: *¡Europa!* Si hay otra guerra mundial, es seguro decir que Europa estaría en el centro de ella una vez más.
@@Lamin_G Something about Europe? How was Europe responsible for the Second Congo War or the Great War of Africa. Europe had a Great War … It was later called World War 1

I stated *the obvious* that was needlessly *censored* when I first posted it in English, which was that *the two World Wars began in Europe.* If you have *evidence* that they started elsewhere but in Europe, produce it!

*Could DR Congo’s Tshisekedi declare war on Rwanda if re-elected?*
~Al Jazeera, 12/21/23
Let a report be made about the drama that is happening in Bangladesh called election.
You guys love the opposition? Opposition is dead, they were protesting before the election even happened, they say no they won’t go to the election, then they said they want elections, then they say they don’t want election, then they say it’s rigged during voting, now they know they will lose in court, you can see from population that we want tshisekedi
Talk about the schools tshisekedi built, no school fees, more hospitals, some roads were built or fixed in Kinshasa, lualaba, why are you not covering that, the continents 7th financial Center was inaugurated 2 weeks back, the biggest arena being built in Kinshasa… We hosted the game of francophones, we are the richest country in the world rich with minerals, the people who are paying aljareza need a congo in problems so that they can easily have access to the minerals, steal, kill people, these elections maybe the fairest 1 in Africa for decades
He won becuase he is against Rwanda and speaks against Kagame. He also wants UN and foreign forces out of Congo who rob steal the wealth. He also acknowledged wazalendo fighting against Rwandan M23 Kagame’s malitias who occupy minerals region in congo
TSHISEKEDI WAS VOTED AT HOME BEI HIS FANATICS. HE CANNT WINN NORMAL ELECTIONS IN RDC.
“Democracy” may not be impossible, but it’s about as “real” as Santa Clause at the North Pole. If there are irregularities in the Congo elections, it wouldn’t be the first place to have them.
With results being posted at every polling station and counting being done before the candidates’ witnesses and observers, the internet not cut, the election opened to foreign medias and observers, the transparency has never been so on top as in this one before or even close. The DRC is a huge country indeed, 80 times the size of Belgium, has huge infrastructure challenges and the National Electoral Commission with the DRC government must be commended for having pulled it off and met the vote deadline.
1) If you go in the streets of the DRC after the publication that President Tshisekedi is the winner a few hours ago, you will find out that 90% of the Congolese people are in jubilation and in trance. We said it all along this electoral process that he is the best president that the DRC has ever had; And there you have it!
2) With results being posted at every polling station and counting being done before the candidates’ witnesses and observers, the internet not cut, the election opened to foreign medias and observers, the transparency has never been so on top as in this one before or even close. Most of the observers’ missions if not all notably the Carter Center, SADC and others, including the famous Christian one known as CENCO, which has always been considered close to Katumbi, the businessman who is trying to run away from the local and international justice for dubious business transactions by seeking protection behind a casque of a politician; Even CENCO and the other observers missions I was saying, are all satisfied with the transparency, the inclusiveness and the credibility of this election despite few logistical problems, which are understandable looking at the size of the country, 80 times Belgium, with few infrastructures, but problems that are insignificant to affect the final results, since 18 million Congolese casted their votes.
Whether we like it or not, whatever angle we want to take on the 2023 elections in the DRC, the election of the Congolese diaspora should close all debates on the hands-down victory of President Tshisekedi. Indeed, organized in countries scattered across the world, notably Belgium, France, South Africa, Canada, the United States, with all the Congolese populations represented and in absolute transparency and calm, it is the image of the perfect elections that the Western media have continued to falsely accuse the DRC of not having had in such a gigantic country, 80 times Belgium, 4 times France, with enormous infrastructure difficulties. Since scientifically, statistically, this election of the Congolese diaspora is well representative of the perfect conditions and can be extrapolated to the whole of Congo, and won hands down with more than 85% of votes by the beloved President Tshisekedi, Well, the winner of the presidential election of the DRC is well known and indisputable. The victory in the country is only confirmation of this. So, if I am a constitutional judge in electoral disputes, with this element in mind, I would have no difficulty in confirming who won.
So, congratulations to my president on this huge and well-deserved victory, you deserve it indeed! A big thank you to their excellencies Jean Pierre Bemba, Vital Kamere, MBoso, Bahati, to the Prime Minister and his entire government, to all the members of the Sacred Union for the Republic, to all the partners who worked behind the curtains for the success of this election, to the patriotic and positive media; Thank you to the CENI (National Electoral Commission) for an historic and well done job, and last but not least, big thank you to the people of this great and beautiful country called CONGOLESE.
People are tired of this eternal whining, complaining and weak opposition; Let her simply go and plow in the fields. Political bickering must not take over the development of the country; The population is impatient to get to work and they are fed up with this noise in their ears. It is time to resolve all this in the new constitution. Notice that the Chinese don’t waste much time with this kind of noise; This is why they grow at supersonic speed while the others waste their time talking!
It’s shameful what happens in Africans countries, this corrupt politicians should be jailed.
These anti Tshisekedi medias don’t get tired. Radio France Internationale, France 24, TV5 MONDE, BBC, DW and others. They don’t even show crowds of people that took the streets celebrating the victory of Tshisekedi. In stead, they are taking side. Moïse Katumbi IS a puppet of the West. We don’t want him to rule DR Congo, our country. Period.
Mediocre opposition trying to creates chaos after failing pursuing people especially that clown Martin Fayulu not first time he does this kind of thing people already have their say and is Felix Congo gotta move forward there’s lots of things to do and we don’t have time for this nonsense
Seems like someone who works for the president is commenting here a lot
Kongolese are not fools they have understood the game of the pale face
13 million please
